NitroTate Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 does it bind up if you just drop the top half down and seat it without cranking any bolts in? also is it binding solid? Like "metal to metal" or is it just a little hard to turn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS1Inferno Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 TTIWWOP check if the bearings are out of round and do the bearings sit in their placee w/o binding witht he top off and i mean all he way down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ugly88 Posted May 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 i got the crank off of kiel (aka theshee) so i'm pretty sure it's a stocker. she starts getting hard to turn as soon as i torque em to 7.5 ft-lbs. once i get to 18 ft-lbs on the case nuts i can't turn it period. i even mic'ed the bearings and they are the same diameter as the old ones so i don't think that is my problem.

BTW what does TTIWWOP mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
